Just home. A malt poured that my wife says in wine sized. Sod it. I am happy. Some very positive signs today. Bodies in the box. Ba, who was brilliant, making the pitch wide. Clarke for Ba goal was class, and that was from the training ground by the way. Well done all. Ekwah and Neil, swapping positions has been needed for weeks. Neil glues this team together and Ekwah has an eye for goal. Loved watching Ekwah today, and Jobe was classy as well in possession. Big shout for Burstow. That technique for the goal was class, few can do that. Think he might just light up a bit now, fingers crossed. Seelt. Not been massively convinced until today but he has a lot right about him. Not a full back, but he looks a real ball playing defender. Rigg. This kid is the business. He can do the lot and will be the best of all of our current squad in time. Just has so much going for him. Lastly, Neil. Folk know about my love affair since he first got a game with us. I am biased. But he is a monster of a footballer. Just brilliant. I rang an agent pal on the way home and he says he is the talk of the town, much more than Clarke. Clock is ticking on how long before we get some big bids. Summer according to my pal, not this week.
Neil will get restraining orders taken out on me n you the way we go on about him Its true tho, he is just different class - for me there isnt many better cms than him in the league n i think he walks into every team I know a few scouts from pretty big teams and he is the one they rave about. The scout i know from a German club reckons he has kicked on that much this season that hes now out their price range
Oh aye. Loved how we treated Gooch. That man is a class act. Always welcome here. Pritchard much less so. Maybe there is more to meets the eye, but I would fine him the max, refuse him a move and ban him for the training ground. Sometimes players show a bleak side because they are told they have the power. Bollovks to him. Cast him into the nowhere and leave him to to pray for a move to the summer. Imagine not being prepared to do your job when your mates need you. Hopefully other clubs look at it and think nah, he isnt trustworthy.
If Stoke had took their chances? **** off we should’ve been 2 up before that but for ****e finishing. Miles better today though playing with a quicker tempo, just keep it up going lads.
Thought Neil was immense today. Played a couple of passes through that looked aimless but in the Prem would have had a runner onto them. Think he is sometimes Thinking a few moves ahead of the young lads around him Can see why premier league teams are circling
I'm a spiteful **** so I'd banish Pritchard to the u21s and make him play every week. If he refuses, he loses a week's wage. There will be no transfer this month for him.
On the same note if the little twat that refuse to play anymore comes back I hope he gets ****ed off big time by us. Soz to jump on your post by the way.
My mate does loads of prem deals. He is a top end agent. I dont bug him for info because we go back to our playing days together and I love him as a mate. I have so much memorabilia from him that has raised money for my grassroots gig. Van Persie, Defoe, Kane take your pick. He knows the score. He said tonight Neil will go to a top end side, no messing about like Dewsbury Hall and Brighton. I honestly believe Neil is the best Midfielder in this league and according to my pal he is the talk of the town. Spurs is my guess, maybe Liverpool. I will miss him, living my dream.
Yep liverpool are all over him at the minute from what ive heard My mates team were close to putting a bid in, in the summer but had another target in mind. He says they regret it now as they think hes added quite a bit onto his price tag this yr We have some talent at our club, even if 50% reach their potential itll be massive for the club Hopefully beale proves to be the right manager to get the best out of them - i have my doubts but all he can do now is prove me wrong (i dont want to be rigbt about him)
on the flip of this I hope he does go to an established prem side but not one of the top tier ones you mention. Think he’d be great for a club like Villa or Brighton. Think he’d struggle for game time higher than that. Unless he gives us another season (please)
Didn't think the atmosphere was great but thankfully it wasn't toxic. Thought 1st half was pretty boring Great improvement 2nd half , having said that against a more clinical side we could have been stuffed Really pleased for Bairstow, confidence etc etc Really hope hope Beale can now get some consequtive wins under his belt (though I doubt it) As for Pritchard! He may have fell out with the club But what about us fans, the cock should still give a100% effort irrespective of his differences He can **** off as far as I'm concerned even though he's probably our most influential player I'm disappointed but if his heart aint in it, good riddance
Thought Beale also spoke well after the match. He just needs to stop rubbing people up the wrong way. If he’s as good as he thinks he is, our football will do the talking. Got it spot on today, so credit where credit’s due.
If Neil ends up going in the summer, which is a possibility having read all on here, then Rigg has to be the one to be sold the dream of moving into his place after he’s gone
I thought the first half was miles better (urgency wise) but poor finishing stopped us leading. What I mainly thought was pleasing and you obviously do, was an international wicket keeper scoring for our beloved club.
